In October 2000, my wife and I decided to replace our cars.  The mileage was creeping up on both vehicles - my wife's car had reached 100 000 miles and my car had reached 81 000 so it was time for a change.  Citroën main dealers proved singularly unhelpful - they tried to persuade me to buy a Xantia when what I wanted was another XM.  Eventually, the XM Centre came up with the goods - a very low mileage two year old CT Turbo VSX Automatic for me and a VSX Turbo Diesel Xantia estate for my wife.
